Season Shoebox Showcase

Thank you to families who were able to pop in and visit the Foundation Seasons Showcase and the Year 1 Playground Showcase. The children have worked very hard to complete these and were proud to show off their work. 

As well as learning the science curriculum, children were exposed to design processes as well as turn taking, patience, resilience and fine motor skills. It was a pleasure to watch the hive of activity as the children worked on their projects, each in the creative zone.

After each session, there were craft materials everywhere, but I was so impressed with how all the children pitched in to reset the room in under 10 minutes!! 

Fdn B & Fdn D 

• showcases will be held next term. Details coming soon. 

1W & 1R

Year 1  

The children have begun their unit on chemical science where we look at how the properties of materials change after we mix them. Today 1SF and 1M made slime! We’ll share the simple recipe next term. 

Donations

We are still in the search of the following:

• Lots of small yoghurt satchel lids. They make the perfect wheels! 

• Paper cups (any that you might have left over from entertaining!) 

   

The donations box will be back outside the Foundation rooms. Thank you.
